Canon IXUS 105

The IXUS 105 brings a great combination of ease of use, high image quality and IXUS design that stands out from the crowd. Capture stunning detail with 12.1 MP, 28mm wide-angle and Smart Auto.

Features

  • Classic IXUS design - The IXUS 105 combines pure IXUS style with fun, effortless operation. It comes in a choice of four attractive colours.*
  • 12.1 Megapixels - A resolution of 12.1 MP lets you make poster-size prints, or creatively crop images to perfection.
  • 28mm wide-angle 4.0x zoom lens - A wide 28mm lens is perfect for capturing landscapes or group shots, while a 4.0x optical zoom lets you get closer to your subject. Canon’s optical Image Stabilizer delivers blur-free results throughout the zoom range.
  • 6.8 cm (2.7”) PureColor II LCD - For detailed image review, easy framing and effortless menu navigation, the IXUS 105 features a 6.8 cm (2.7”) PureColor II LCD. A wide viewing angle makes it easy to share images with friends as well as frame shots in bright sunlight.
  • Effortless Shooting - Smart Auto mode uses Scene Detection Technology to determine the shooting scene from subject brightness, contrast, distance and overall hue. The camera then selects the appropriate scene from a possible 18, and applies optimum settings – leaving the user free to simply point and shoot. Smart Flash Exposure controls flash power and usage, helping to avoid problems like dark backgrounds and face shadows, and producing natural results in a variety of conditions
  • Face Detection Technology - Face Detection technology detects up to 35 faces in a scene and adjusts focus, exposure, flash settings and white balance – for optimal results with natural-looking skin tones. FaceSelf-Timer makes group photos easy, taking a shot after an extra face enters the frame. Auto Red-Eye Correction eliminates red-eye during shooting or playback.
  • Motion Detection Technology - Motion Detection Technology detects movement in the shooting scene and camera shake. The optimal ISO level is then automatically set, to minimise blur and maximise image quality.
  • i-Contrast - i-Contrast offers improved contrast and greater detail in tricky lighting conditions.
  • DIGIC 4 - The DIGIC 4 processor delivers richly detailed, clean images, even when shooting at high ISO speeds. DIGIC 4 also drives fast and responsive camera operation.
  • Shooting modes - 15 shooting modes are available, including Low Light, for great shots in darker conditions.
  • VGA movies - Supplement your still images with fun 30fps VGA movie clips. A YouTube™ Upload function, included in the software package, lets you share videos online simply by connecting to a computer.

Canon Ixus 105
Not many creative modes The Ixus 105 doesn't have any of the creative functions that seem to be popular in other compact cameras at the moment. Although it has the typical basic modes for turning your pictures into black and white shots or nostalgic sepia tones, you won't be able to play around with... Read more ...
PROSCompact, stylish camera, Good overall picture quality, Pleasant, easy-to-use graphic inferface, Autofocus generally quite good, Good auto modes
CONSNo 720p HD video mode, Lens could be sharper / Lens is slow in telephoto mode, No exposure histogram in shooting mode, Very limited burst mode

Canon IXUS 105 review Review
The 12.1-megapixel IXUS 105 compact camera is fairly ordinary when it comes to its picture quality and feature set. What you're paying for is the typically classy IXUS styling, as well as robust build quality, so those who value how their camera looks should check it out Read more ...
PROSGreat design, finish and build quality, Useful 4x wide-angle zoom range, Straightforward controls

Decent little camera
I bought this as something I could have with me or in the car at all times. It's cheap enough so that if it were lost or damaged then I wouldn't be too traumatised. If quality is all important or the conditions demanding then I'll lug along my full SLR kit. Read more ...

A few days ago I bought one... actually a 107, the Jessops special edition. I would rather have had the previous model (Ixus 90?) with the optical range finder, but it was no longer available from Jessops, though having been on its website only a few weeks earlier. Read more ...
PROSIntuitive and easy to use
CONSNo optical range finder
